► Jess on the "Tui Is a Bird (The Work)" visualizer: "The visualizer was made by my good friend Ebony Lamb, a New Zealand photographer, artist and musician. She shot the footage in Paekākāriki, a coastal area near my hometown of Wellington. I’m so thrilled to have this footage connected to the Tui Is a Bird song because it’s full of things I love and miss— the Kapiti coastline and the Tasman sea, the New Zealand cabbage trees and harakeke (NZ flax) and mānuka bushes and of course the many Tūī birds. It makes me homesick but in a good way. "

► Lyrics:
Tui is a bird
Tui is a pepper, and a baby
Tui is a baby
She wakes in the night
Decoding the colors of the streetlight
Flooding through the blind

Some days all I think of
Is the size of my love
And what that means I could lose

Some days it’s an ocean
Get scared that I’ll get broken
It’s one more
Chance to choose

This love
This hurt
Can you help me do the work
She’s a universe

If I do good things
Whatever that means
Will only good things happen to me?
She presses her feet
up against my cheek and it
Makes me almost start to cry

Some days all I think of
Is the size of my love
And what that means I could lose
We fall down and then
We get up and it’s just one more
Chance to choose

This love
This hurt
And I’d do it all for her
She’s a universe

And I know I won’t be around for ever
And I know it’s a privilege to survive
But I long to live to have the pleasure
Of seeing lines of age around her eyes.
